Sir Charles Upper.

Sir Charles Upper, who is to act as
Canada's representative on the fisheries
commission at Washington, is probably
the best man our northern neighbors
could have selected, as he has made the
interests of Canada a lifetime study. His
home is in Nova Scotia, hut he knows the
nature and resources of every Canadian
province; he is, indeed, the founder of
the Canadian confederation, if any one
man can claim that honor He entered

Vegetable Remedies,

Almost every vegetable has specific ef-
feet. Celery is a sedative to the nerves, with
favorable action on neuralgia and rheuma-
tism. Spinach is believed to act as stima-
liant ON the kidneys. Asparagus is an admira-
BILE blood cleanser To tomatoes is attributed
special action on the stomach and liver.
Lettuce and cucumbers, with the acid used in
dressing them, are cooling during the sum-
mer. Peas and beans are strengthening in a
high degree. Beets and turnips are also said
to have tonic action. Dandelion is a tonic
and laxative. Red pepper is seryiceable in
chronic constipation and some forms of
hemorrhoids, in chronic sore throat and many
forms of hoarseness And it is now claimed
that garlic has been administered in hydro
phobia with good results

the siege of Savannah while rescuing the
flag that had been planted on the
ramparts. Though he died in the middle
period of the revolution no hero who lived
it through had career more fascinating
It reads like the romance of a brave
knight of the days of chivalry. When
the British fleet attacked Fort Moultrie
and the American flagstaff was shot
down he 1eaped out into the ditch and
raised it again in the midst of a
storm of shot and shell. His next ex-
ploit was to attack with single COM
panion British guard of ten soldiers
who were conveying some Americans
to prison. When the guard halted at q
spring, the two lads-they were but just
of age-darted from the bushes upon the
two soldiers left in charge of the stacked
arms, disabled them, and with their guns
shot the first two who came up from the
spring With no time to load they
dubbed their guns and killed the next
two, then released the prisoners before the
rest of the guard could rally. Not only
did they rescue the prisoners, but marched
the British guard into the American
camp. For his exploits he was offered an
officers commission, but declined it on
the plea that he could not read! A Mrs
Elliott, on behalf of the ladies of Charles
ton, presented him with beautiful set of
colors, which he preserved with great
pride. Though mortally wounded in the
rash assault upon Savannah under Count
D'Estaing, he reached the American camp
and died in the act of exhorting his com
panions to patriotic service.
The statue represents him as he seized
the flag from the British ramparts, where
it had been planted. 1t is the production
Of Mr.. Alexander Doyle, of New York;
the figure is of bronze, ten feet high, and
rests upon PEDESTAL twenty feet high.
Few cities in this country so richly repay
the tourist for visit as Savannah. The
beauty of its broad streets and semi-trop-
ical parks, it's noble monuments to Pu-
laski, Gordon and others, it's historic as
sociations, its landmarks of the revolution
and local records and buildings connected
with the establishment Of Methodism in
America, all combine to delight and in
struct. The monument to Jasper but
adds one to the many previous objects of
interest.

islands England has neglected.
Having settled his recent misunder-
standing with France, ''stood off, the Rus
SLAMS for the present, compromised with
the pope and enlarged the regular army,
bismarck has leisure to prosecute his long
cherished design of getting possession
of the Samoan Islands. The latest news
from those islands of the blest and law
(by the monthly steamer to San Francisco,
which left Samoa Sept. 15) is that King
Malietoa and all his loyal chiefs and war
rlors are in the mountainous interior, in
hostile camps, while rebel chief holds
the coast and capital, supported by the
German fleet and directed by the German
consul. Unless other nations interfere
we may expect to learn, early in 1888,
that all Samoa is German insular prov
ince, SO the history and statistics of the
island are well worth looking into.
Samoa, better known as the Navigators'
Islands, consists of a group of nine islands
in the South Pacific ocean, on latitude 10
degs. and IA degs south and stretching
from 1863 degs. to 173 degs. west longitude.
The nine inhabited islands contain but
1,125 square miles and scarcely $4,000
native inhabitants; but the level lands
are OF great fertility, the harbors are COM
modious and the climate delightful-so
there is room for q vast development
And as the best harbor is on the direct
route from San Francisco to Australia
the English and Americans think they
have some rights in the settlement of
ownership. Apia, the capital, shown
in the initial letter cut at the
head of this article, is situated on
this harbor, and has q native population of
200 or 300, with about 100 white foreign
ers; there all the consuls reside, and there
the king ard his officers generally lived
till the Germans chased them into the
mountains. There are extensive mission
ary establishments ON the islands, and
most of the business is done by German
firms, with headquarters in Hamburg

Clear and COOL clear and cool. aA@z
BY laughing shallow and dreaming pool:
Cool and clear cool and clear,
BY shining shinge and foaming weir:
Under the crag where the ouzel sings.
And the ived wall where the church bell rinps,
Ondefed for the undefiled;
Piay by me, battle in me, mother and child
Dank and foul, dank and foul,
BY the smoky town in its murky cowl;
Foul and dank foul and dank,
by wharf and sewer, and Shiny bank;
Darker and darker the further 70,
Baser and baser the richer grow;
Who dare sport with the sin defiled?
Shrink from me, turn from me- mother and child.
Strong and free, strong and free
The Hood gates are open, away to the sea;
Free and strong, free and strong,
Cleansing my streams as hurry along
To the golden sands and the leaplng bar,
And the taintless tide that awaits me afar.
As lose myself in the infinite main,
Like soul that has sinn'd and is pardon'd again,
Undefiled for the undefiled;
Play by me, bauhe in me, mother and child

The Founder Of Johns Hopkins Uni.
Vrslty.

Eighty years ago an awkward, ungainly
country boy was keeping store for his
uncle in Anne Arundel county. about forty
miles from Baltimore He was shrewd and
attentive. He made more money out of
the store than his uncle had ever done.
When he was "a his uncle asked him If he
would like 10 60 into business for himself.
lie replied that he did not have money
enough. His uncle offered to start him.
The result was that the young man took a
warehouse near that of the uncle and sue
ceeded so well that in year or so he was
able TO buy his uncle out. His fortune
grew rapidly. He never misapplied so
much as cent. Every penny was precious
in bis eyes Money making became his
mania; wealth his one desire On a GER
tain occasion, after much talk, he per
suaded man to let him have fifty cent
article for forty cents.
why is ii :" asked a friend, that a
man Of your great wealth should want to
add few cents like that to his fortunef"
The pleasure of possession sir: the
pleasure Of possession" was his reply.
This shrewd, stingy man was Johns
Hopkins. His business foresight was al
most an inspiration. He never lost money
in an investment He saw the future of
the Baltimore and Ohio road. He bought
largely of its stock. This brought him in
close relationship with John w. Garrett.
The two became firm friends. They were
the money powers of Baltimore.
1t was more than anything else due to
John w Garrett that Johns Hopkins used
his millions for the establishment of a
university and hospital to bear his name.
This benefaction is in many, if not ALL re-
spects greater in amount and results than
any other munificence in the history of
this country. To the university he gave
1880 shares of the common stock of the
Baltimore and Ohio road and his large es-
tate at Clifton, just outside the city limits
an endowment worth over So, 900, 900. To
the hospital he gave thirteen acres of mag
niticently situated ground on Broadway,
and bonds and property worth So, 400, 900
more. The hospital, on which $2,000,000
has already been expended, will be the
largest and finest building of its kind in
the world.
